The Social

See our all our pics from the evening—and be sure to tag yourselves—on Facebook.

The Society

The noble, the strange. This year's theme transformed the familiar into the abstract, with a notion of civility, an eye for the celestial, and a parlance of wit.

The Society represents our city’s top creative minds. Those adroit renegades who catch out mediocrity and drive it from this gritty metropolis entirely. Who dare to think bold. Be badass. Cloaked in secrecy, with a penchant for deviousness, we The Society are here. Behind every striking idea. Quiet as a raindrop on Jupiter. Fighting the fight for sublime creativity.

THE JUDGES

The judges hath judged. The votes hath been cast. Your creative fate hath been determined. Creative dignitaries from across the nation traveled to our great city via winged aluminum vessels, joining together to witness your ingenuity and acknowledge your accomplishments.
